Well, I think you _can_ do this with QTest, although it may not be meant for 
this. I'm using QTest in my application as well although I'm not testing the 
app (I find that using QTest::wait() is a nice helper in some areas, 
although it always be done differently...).

Anyway, this may help:
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.6/qtesteventlist.html
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.6/qtest.html

Then use the commands from your input file and act on them by creating 
simulated events.

HTH, René
